can't believe this video is still alive a few days later. it's flies. Hate to be the guy who says "when I worked i news," but... when I worked in news and we'd be shooting b-roll, or anything for that matter, you would see the same thing during editing when you slowed it down. It's flies. You don't notice until it's slowed down, but it's there.

You basically did. A shredder or drill or sander or fire or god-knows-what, launches very-small particulate matter into the air, where it can be carried around on air currents like a small scale version of a plastic bag on the wind. If it's vaguely reflective debris, you can easily get the glints that the 'original cameraman' is ready to call fire from a "thruster". And small-scale air currents and very light objects can do some pretty wild zipping around on otherwise-too-small-to-see air currents. At very small scales you can easily see things like, say, the metal on a camera tripod leg heating up in the direct sunlight, creating tiny little columns of hot air that can 'launch' such debris upward (comparatively) violently.

Mix in the facts that the recording involves: A) a tripod B) noonday sun C) what appears to be a location in or around a construction site

My thought too. Everyone just assumes they're something off in the distance. And, it explains why people looking up at the sky don't see them (although the credulous reporter assumes it's because they fly too fast to be seen by the naked eye). Also explains why they seem to be visible when filmed across an open area of the type that might, say, be inhabited by insects.

WayneKerr:ringersol: If they show up even semi-regularly, why wouldn't you set up a camera in a different location, watching the same patch of sky?That way you'd be able to rule out any localized bugs or debris.

Explain localized debris. I know that certain metal shredders are known to lauch items into the air, but...

What, you don't have localized debris where you live? Shoot, around my place you have to duck everytime you walk out the door.

* Out-of-focus or low-res 'ufo' - check* Fast jumps between multiple video clips to disorient the viewer - check* Sped-up framerate. Look at the clouds (at 0:20) and bird (starting at 1:01, flying in front of the ridge on the right side towards the left) - check

Brilliant... not.

B-b-b-b-b-ut, look into the Denver terminal.

That is all.

P.S. Especially look at the veiny horse used as a centerpiece. Seriously, just look at it closely. With the glowing eyes. Veiny horse, glowy eyes. You do the math.

Again annoyed nobody thought to take a camera with high enough resolution to allow us a better, closer view.

Actually, professional TV cameras have high enough resolution, but lenses matter more than resolution. The camera has that as well. What the 'too low of resolution' crowd doesn't seem to grasp is that all the TV guy was able to do is point the camera in the general direction and hope he got something, this wasn't an object you saw and then pointed the camera at.
